Character icons from the Spaceworld 2001 build of the unreleased Diddy Kong Pilot. Bowser’s sprite seems to have been assigned the wrong palette.
Victory screens for Team Kong, Team Krem and Team Cranky from Diddy Kong Pilot (an unreleased game that was reworked into Banjo-Pilot).
In a prototype version of Diddy Kong Pilot (an unreleased game that was reworked into Banjo-Pilot), an unfinished version of a character select screen can be seen. Unlike the other characters, Candy Kong cannot be selected, and is instead overlaid with a picture of a character that, according to sources at Rare, was named “Redneck Kong” during development.
